Penquin, is your home within 35 feet of the back and/or side of your lot? It looks that way from the photo, but maybe due to other construction, they just haven't completed putting in the sod.

It seems that it would be at least worth a call find out why the utility box is closer to your home than shown on the platt.
There was a mistake. The Transformer box is supposed to be in the property behind him. From what he is saying, they are going to move the door and plant around the box to make it look nice.
